In one way, I hope the GOP in Congress step up their targetting of renewables in the military.

And that is, without a doubt, a fantastic thing.<br /><br />Now, to the reliance issue I got from your USMC link, this is one of the reasons why I find the Keystone issue problematic. Oil is with us, and the sands oil will be burned, make no mistake. And armies, like it or not, run on it. Here or China. So why don't we benefit from the security of potentially having a good supply from a reliable source?<br /><br />I would prefer it not to be true, but can you disagree?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16612221.post-32403380530372045052011-11-13T19:11:47.926-05:002011-11-13T19:11:47.926-05:00More reading for TL:
